timers/timers.c

This sample demonstrates the usage of Nut/OS timer functions.
In addition it demonstrates how to enable system debug output. You need the debug version of the Nut/OS libraries. To create them, you must enable the RTOS Kernel - OS Debug option in the Configurator. Then use the Build Menu in the Configurator to generate the build tree again and build Nut/OS.
Note, that the debug version consumes much more memory than the original version. If in doubt, check the map file.

/*
 * Timer callback routine.
 *
 * This function is called by the system timer thread. It is executed 
 * at a very high priority and must return as soon as possible and must 
 * not call any potentially blocking function.
 *
 * To keep this example as simple as possible, we break the above rule 
 * and call print functions. However, this is not really a problem, 
 * because the UART output queue won't overflow on our few characters 
 * and return immediately after starting transmit interrupts, which are
 * running in the background.
